DE are not coming out

If you hear a rumor, its a lie

If GW mentions them, they're just patronizing your purchase of a unsupported army.

That motto GW put out when they were hyping up Space Hulk, "Everything you heard was a lie."? Well, they were talking about Dark Eldar.

nope, more like:

Q4 '12---> the world ends..
Q1 '13---> Dark eldar

Na GW will release the Dark Eldar hours before the end of the world. This will be so they can sell the army codex/ nw models to as many people as possible and still nto really allow anyone to play the new list.

[ratpack]

nope, more like:

Q4 '12---> the world ends..
Q1 '13---> Dark eldar

This still leaves inquisition out

[TheKingElessar]

Because I posted over a month ago that that was the case?
Dark Eldar will come out in 2011, because the Codex wasn't good enough last time. It's hard for Jes to finish the models when they change their minds about what's in the Dex...Apparently the whole army Outflanking isn't enough...

"News" about Necrons these days on other forums mostly says they will get their revision and re-release in 2011. Also, perhaps it would be worth looking at this [URL="http://www.lounge.belloflostsouls.net/showthread.php?t=2215"]thread elsewhere on the forum[/URL].

You will not see Dark Eldar for a long time because this army does not fit into GW current style of releasing and updating armies. Armies now are released as follows:

1) Several months prior to the release GW discontinues many of the models.
2) The new shiny codex is unveiled along with a few new characters and an upgrade sprue or two are released.
3) Whenever GW finishes the sculpts or "gets around to it" the release remainder of the units.

GW currently has units in the Deamon army without models ( Seekers. plastiic plague bearers, etc ).
GW just recently released the remaining characters and models for the Space Marines.
GW is still working on models for the Guard ( vehicles, new troops?) and from what I hear there will be several Space Wolves entries (Thunderwolf Cavalry ) that will not have models for a while either.

Dark Eldar need a complete new line of models and some retail shelf space. GW is not going to sacrific any room in its store or commit any real resources to sculpts for this project when they have so many others partially done. It's a long way off, like it was said the Mayan calendar stops in 2012, then Hell freezes over, and a few years after that you get the new Dark Eldar army. Dont look for them anytime sooner!

And as far as those Eldar scetches go; the one on the left is the old second ed Striking Scorpion Exarch with a Biting Blade and the one on the right is a more recent Striking Scorpion. No evidence of Dark Eldar here, move along, nothing hear to see.........
